I am looking for an acoustic guitar. I'm new to it, so I don't really know much. I was told to look for good brands like Yamaha, Takamine, or Ibanez. What's the difference? I went to some guitar websites and under each brand of acoustic guitars, there are different model names or series. What's the difference between each model in the guitar?
The brands you list all make inexpensive guitars (as well as some more expensive ones). I assume you're looking to get a guitar for $300 or $400. If that is the case you'll need to go to a local guitar store with a decent acoustic inventory. They might not have all 3 brands. You may need to shop around to try all the models and/or brands you're interested in.
The only way to understand the differences is to play as many of them as you're interested in. They will feel different- some will have larger or wider bodies than others. Some may have a cut-away to make it easier to reach the upper frets. Others may or may not have a pickup- to plug into a PA or amp- good if you plan on playing at open mics and such. There will not be dramatic differences in woods used and quality of construction at this price point, but you will like one or two (for whatever personal reasons- finish, feel, or so) more than the others. So take an afternoon and try some out. Good luck!
1 . what are the differences between acoustic guitar and electric guitar ?
2 . when you play one of them , can you also play the other one or you have to take different classes ?
3 . if yes , Is it atleast easier to learn acoustic when you know electric ?
There are two types of acoustic... steel stringed and classical or Spanish style nylon stringed... but there are also steel stringed electric/acoustic guitars. Acoustics rely on the body cavity to amplify the sound and resonate through the tone wood.
Electric guitars are either semi-hollow or solid bodied and rely on the magnetic pickups to translate the string vibration into an electric signal for an amplifier to "amplify" and send through a speaker or 2 or 4 or... The guitar/amp instrument of course gives you a lot of playability options with tone and distortion, reverb, etc...
Being able to play either type of guitar usually translates to playing any other, but... a lot people have bad habits that are masked by the nature of the electric guitar, and won't be when they play acoustic. So to go from acoustic to electric I would argue is easier.
My aim is to learn the acoustic guitar and then move on to the bass guitar.
I was thinking about buying the Yamaha FG700 acoustic but then i was given advice saying that Yamaha is crap and the Johnson acoustic guitars are better and cheaper.
I want to make sure that when i finally buy my acoustic guitar, i don't start wishing i bought a different one.
No matter what guitar you buy, you're probably going to wish you'd bought a different one. It's the nature of things.
That said, I have zero experience with Johnson guitars (never heard of them). But I've played some good Samicks and Corts. Then there's the low-end Epiphones and Squires (owned by Gibson and Fender, respectively). Of course, if you'd like to try something totally different, you may look at an Applause by Ovation -- they have a round, Lycra back, which greatly changes the feel of them. Although a bit of warning: people generally either love or loathe round-back guitars; there's very little middle-ground.
The key is to play as many as you can lay your hands on and find out which guitar feels the most comfortable in your hands; if it's not comfortable to play, then you're never going to play it. Then eventually you can move up and get a Gibson, Taylor, or Martin (the real King of the Acoustic Guitar).
I'm going to go buy an acoustic guitar for Christmas, but I'm not really sure what I should get. I am planning on going to Guitar Center to try some of them out, but I want some suggestions of guitars I should be looking at.
Norman acoustics are good.
